Do you have any tips for my flight to Lankanfushi Island?
We've rounded up all the info you need to make your flight as stress-free as possible. Follow our tips and you'll be cruising through airport security and having a blast in Lankanfushi Island before you know it. What to pack in your hand luggage:
  • First of all, pack your passport, official ID, cash and medications. Next, you'll need some entertainment to while away the time. A juicy novel and a tablet crammed with your favourite movies are some fantastic options. If you plan to take a short nap, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of earplugs will also be useful. Finally, find room for a toothbrush and some cleansing wipes to ensure you arrive at your destination looking fresh and raring to go.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
  • Make sure you don't have a pocket knife lurking in one of the zippers of your carry-on luggage. Other restricted items include flammable or explosive goods, such as aerosol cans and fuel, and gels and liquids in containers with a volume of more than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres).
What to wear on a flight:
  • Comfort should be your priority when choosing what to wear during your flight. Loose, breathable clothing is a sensible choice, as are flat, closed-toe shoes.
  • The result of lengthy periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clotting condition that can affect some passengers on long-haul flights. Reduce the risks by drinking water, keeping your legs and ankles moving and wearing compression socks to help your circulation.
How to get through airport security fast when flying to Lankanfushi Island?
A little pre-planning before your flight will make your trip to Lankanfushi Island quick and painless. Check out our handy tips for a speedy journey past security:
  • Security personnel first need to know that you have a valid ID and matching boarding pass before you can proceed any further. Keep them within easy reach.
  • Next up, both you and your hand luggage must be X-rayed. To speed things up, take off anything that is likely to set the alarm off. Items like your coat, belt and earphones need to go through the machine.
  • For just a few moments, you'll have to unplug from the digital world. Your laptop, phone and any other electronic gadgets must also be sent through the scanner.
  • Any liquids or gels, such as shampoo or hairspray, that you want to bring on board must be no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres). Also, everything must fit inside a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-close bag.
  • Lightweight sneakers are a practical footwear choice as you're less likely to be required to remove them when passing through security. Boots and heavier-style shoes are usually subjected to extra screening.
  • Avoid taking prohibited items in your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp objects like a pocket knife or tools, pack them safely away in your checked suitcase. They won't be allowed in the cabin.
